It is the 15th of the month and that means we get to show off a new Dueling Darlings challenge. For the April Challenge, Suzy and Terry are the Darlings who decided on the theme. Terry is a Darling and Suzy is a Diva, my team!
The theme or challenge they picked is "Swing into Spring or Spring". This is what Suzy wrote for the Divas: So, our theme is "swing into spring" or "spring". Not sure how we decided to word it! Some of you haven't even seen spring yet!! The second part of your challenge is to let us know what your favorite dessert that was made usually in the Spring....maybe something that was only made at Easter time. If you want...share the recipe! We can always use more dessert recipes!!
Here is the inside of my card--I used the sweet die cut that Suzy sent:
I really do not have a spring-time food that I crave--however, I do look for the start of all of the fresh fruit that starts to arrive at our local stores. I also look forward to the local farmer's markets starting up later this spring!
I hope Suzy and the other Darlings enjoy my card.
